Notes

See also: X-30943 and X-30944.; Title hand-written on back of print; attached typed paper reads: "In the early days of the Old Oregon Trail, Indians were not so friendly as these two Bannock ladies from Fort Hall, decked out for a holiday event at Pocatello -- "The Gate City." Nowadays they make beautiful necklaces and clothing which tourists like as souvenirs. The boy is adorned as a fierce warrior, and the papoose is at home in his basket. Idaho Indians like to doll up this way for any summer occasions. These are Bannocks at the Fort Hall Centennial in Pocatello in 1934."; R7100309421
